Роскосмос сдвинул сроки разработки ракеты «Ангара-А5В»

The rocket is expected to be ready by 2030 — 4 years ahead of schedule

The development of the heavy-lift Angara-A5V rocket with a hydrogen-oxygen third stage is planned to be completed by 2030, according to Dmitry Bakanov, head of Roscosmos.

The development timeline for the hydrogen-oxygen third stage, which will allow for the delivery of up to 4 tons to geostationary orbit instead of 2.5 tons, has been moved up from 2034 to 2030.

Roscosmos is also considering pricing issues for launches of the heavy-lift Angara-A5V rocket to ensure its economic efficiency. This will make the launch more accessible and competitive on the international stage.

Thus, accelerating the development of the Angara-A5V could be an important step for the Russian space program and enhance the country's capabilities in launching heavy payloads into orbit.

Earlier, www1.ru reported that the Angara-A5 will launch from Vostochny in April 2024.
